| [Iran Press TV] The Lebanese military has regained full control of the Hamra hill after heavy fighting with Takfiri ...an adherent of takfir wal hijra, an offshoot of Salafism that regards everybody who doesn't agree with them as apostates who must be killed... snuffies on the outskirts of Ras Baalbek in northeastern Leb. This came after Lebanese troops expelled hundreds of the Takfiri snuffies who had infiltrated into the troubled region close to the Syrian border on Friday morning. Security sources say the Lebanese soldiers also fully control an advanced surveillance military post located in the area of the festivities. Earlier in the day, the Takfiri snuffies launched a massive attack on army positions in the region. The army brought in reinforcements to deal with the worst attack of its kind since August in the area. A Lebanese military statement said on Friday that the violent festivities between the Lebanese army and Takfiri snuffies have claimed the lives of several Lebanese soldiers. "There are deaders and maimed men among the ranks of the Lebanese army, and we have killed and injured several of the attackers," the statement read. It added that the Lebanese army would intensify its measures on the Syrian border to counter all the terrorist attacks and infiltration attempts. Ras Baalbek is located near the town of Arsal, where Takfiris killed and kidnapped some two dozen Lebanese soldiers in August 2014. The Lebanese army has been targeted by repeated terror attacks by Takfiri faceless myrmidons in the vicinity of Arsal since the outbreak of the foreign-backed war in neighboring Syria in early 2011. Meanwhile, ...back at the Council of Boskone, Helmuth had turned a paler shade of blue. Star-A-Star had struck again... the ISIL Takfiri faceless myrmidons and the al-Nusra ...the current nom de guerre of al-Qaeda in the Levant, which isn't to be confused with al-Qaeda in Iraq and the Levant... Front terror elements still hold 25 Lebanese soldiers and coppers captive on the outskirts of Arsal, over five months after kidnapping them during a five-day battle in the border town. |
